$149-Million Mega Millions Ticket Sold In McKeesport

MCKEESPORT (KDKA) - Someone in Allegheny County woke up Wednesday $149 million richer.

The Pennsylvania Lottery says a winning Mega Millions ticket worth $149 million was sold in McKeesport.

The winning ticket was sold at White Oak Gas & Grocery on Fawcett Avenue.

"Our phones have not stopped, my cell phone hasn't stopped," said Michelle Blackwell, a clerk at the store, said. "It's been crazy since we found out."

This is the Pennsylvania Lottery's first jackpot-winning Mega Millions ticket since joining the multi-state game in 2010.

The Pennsylvania Lottery has sold 17 jackpot-winning Powerball tickets since joining that multi-state game in 2002.

The Mega Millions jackpot had been rolling since the last jackpot was won in California on April 4.

The owner of the White Oak Gas & Grocery will get a $100,000 as a bonus from the Lottery Commission.

The winning numbers were 10-40-63-64-69, and the Megaball 07.
